Jeff Cohn Cellars — Attraction in Healdsburg

I used to be a club member here back when they were in Oakland, easily the best wine of all the east bay wineries, I loved going to their tasting room for releases and anytime we had company in town. Recently saw a couple of their bottles in a store in Chicago where I live now and it’s been about 7 years since I had one and since then I have really expanded my wine horizons and knowledge.

And he just called this week to wish us happy holidays. Passionate about his wines and seemingly passionate about those that enjoy them. Fantastic. Happy Holidays back to J&AC and...

Came here with my wife on a relaxed Sunday afternoon. The place was not too busy and we chose the tasting flight. $15 for 5 wines and they wave the fee if you buy a bottle. The owner Jeff was there happily tasting with customers and really showed his enthusiasm for his wines. Many of the wines are blends but the yumyum was a great table wine and reportedly one of their most popular purchases by club members so we picked up a bottle of that. Great stop on the Oakland...
